Scrutiny is a shorthand term for the activities carried out by non-executive councillors to review the Council and other local organisations. Find out how this works in East Sussex.
There are five scrutiny committees in East Sussex that meet four times a year. They have a wide range of powers to examine and make recommendations on almost everything affecting East Sussex or its residents.
Our committees carry out a range of in-depth scrutiny reviews. Find out about the review process as well as the current and completed reviews.
